Proverbs 19:14

Houses and wealth are inherited from parents, but a prudent wife is from the Lord.

The Living Bible uses the word "sensible".  The Amplified Bible says "wise, understanding, and prudent".  We are to show wisdom, discernment, common sense, and integrity in our roles as godly wives.  My mother often told us "Think, then do".  This applies just as much to adults as to children.  Do not be foolhardy and act rashly.  We should be prudent in how we treat others, in how we manage our budgets, in the care and keeping of our homes.  Our words should be chosen carefully and we should remember that our actions speak louder than our words.
